Those are insane! I thought I've got the best altered show and tells, but now I see, how wrong i was. Are they altered by Jeff himself?

There's something about his art style that melds so perfectly with his alters (the medium of the art he uses and his choice of colors seems to be similar to card altering medium in general).

Looks amazing!

I already felt bad building Dredge, so i'm committing all the way to the dark side, Russian Dredge!

I think committing all the way would be Russian foil ;)

That's an interesting thought, we do it with cymbals really and that dirt and grime really brings out some warm, dark overtones. I'd be afraid to do it with cards though..

Island test print foil?

Wouldn't it have a white back?

dernestor86
02-23-2013, 07:32 AM
Wouldn't it have a white back?

yup it would. other than that there could be an interpretation of "shiny" meant with the guru symbol, maybe he got an upside down symbol island, thats the most expensive tournament legal basic land i know of.

and if it is one, let me take that off your hands, still looking for a few of those^^

other than that the test foil island i dont know any foil basics that are worth that much, even as misprints. but he can only use it in an edh deck sadly :-/

Bit of an odd question:

Does City of Brass, with the original Arabian Nights art, come available in languages other than English, Japanese, and Italian in non-Foil versions? That is to say basically, aside from Renaissance(Italian), was Chronicles printed in any other languages? I have one of each of the three previously mentioned, and want to get a fourth BB City with original art in a fourth language.

It is pretty obvious, indeed.

About the Volcanic, I was told it it was altered to look as if it was night or something along those lines. Then the text box, Can't remember what he said. Oh well. Cheap novelty Volcanic Island.

I hope you paid a very low price for that volcanic island. That thing is heavily defaced...I would get it altered by a good alterist to make it sweet looking or at least better than it does now. The textbox stuff is weird too, just looks like someone was quite bored and decided to deface a beta volcanic island.

Hey guys,

With the help of some nice guys some pages before I could manage to get that nice binder from ultrapro :D
and I've now filled it with some stuff :D
with some foil stuff.
Basically EVERYTHING is foil but the Sol Ring (Alpha) and Demonic Tutor (Beta).
My better Japanese foils like zen fetchs etc are in a smaller binder :D

So I'm obviously technologically stupid, can't figure out how to just place pic link directly here to be seen. Anyways, here is my baby I've been working on for awhile. Still missing foil goyfs and a few foil vortex. A few future upgrades I plan on making, foil goyfs obviously, trade in the FNM brainstorms for Foil Masques and then upgrade bolts for original artwork foils. But for now this will have to do.

All of this was aquired in a single trade yesterday. The Beta Timewister completes my set of Power, and is my first piece of Beta Power. I traded up my beat Unlimited Time Vault into Beta :cool: , and picked up my second Library of Alexandria along with the rest of the cards seen.

I also made some other trades recently and picked up my first two Beta REBs and all of these Beta basics to add to my collection of them. (the light swamp at the top is Alpha though)

A similar thing happened at GP Charlotte for me, when having cards signed by Terese Nielsen. On Mana Reflection I asked her to save room for Ron's signature, and for some reason she wrote "For Ron" above her signature. :laugh:

yup it would. other than that there could be an interpretation of "shiny" meant with the guru symbol, maybe he got an upside down symbol island, thats the most expensive tournament legal basic land i know of.

and if it is one, let me take that off your hands, still looking for a few of those^^

Seen a couple of those Gurus a few years back. I have never seen a horizontally miscut foil "blank"/Plains no symbol (severe miscut) in old card frame.. and that's what came in the mail today!

Magic Online Traders is a pretty good spot. eBay has them from time to time, and if you really want them, retail + 10% seems a good way to secure your bids.
Foil ONS fetches, well, foil fetches in general are very desirable. It took me almost a year to complete a set of foil Flooded Strands, and I wouldn't be excited to repeat that process.

Sideboard:
http://lochlanmcintosh.com/psi/5_sideboard.jpg

Despite my passion for this ridiculous pile I have yet to play it in a serious tournament--but it's my go-to for side events. Bewildering and annoying new opponents with these cards is one of my favorite things to do.

The hardest cards to obtain were Wild Cantor and Skyshroud Cutter, but really every piece was tough to find. I do consider the deck "finished" despite that I'd like to (eventually) upgrade the dual lands to beat Alpha, or at least make the the sideboard Bayou French to match the other one.

Bonus, in case I want to mix it up:

The Odious Trow is foil and I generally prefer to play it over the Deathrite Shaman, for maximum troll value!

Beautiful deck! I've been working on the same (nonfoil Japanese) for TES and I'm not looking forward to the LEDs. Though I have signed English ones in the meantime I'm happy with.

That's the most elegant deck in this thread so far. I wish Wizards would print japanese ESG...

Slightly offtopic, does anyone remember name of a user who posted a set of 5 mono coloured english foil decks [possibly a long time ago]?

But at the last minute my urge to play my newly signed german forces got me ... but I have to play them in an awful deck otherwise it just isn't fair. And what's more awful than this.

Use a upload service like http://imageshack.us/.

Then, post a reply with tags around the direct URL of the image, like [IMG ]http://url.com\image.jpg[ /IMG] (you'll need to remove the spaces i put in for it to work).

There's also a little picture button (has a tree on it), click that and it will prompt you for the URL of the image.

Sometimes it's hard to funnel your cash into cards when you have a functional version of them that you don't want to be without for an extended period of time. You have a Mox Emerald ... it taps for green and costs 0. So you need to find the right situation to unload your UL and get your beta in a small window (assuming you don't have an unlimited MTG budget ... which I'm guessing by red bordered rituals you don't).

Agreed, especially for Vintage, a lot of times it's so hard to get much use out of beta Power no matter how pretty it is.

I have my Beta power for sale since November and I had dozens of offers for upgrading but this is simply pointless. First most offers contain an additional cash offer which is imo a joke combined with the sentence "you'll sell the Unlimited power easier afterwards" which is right the Second Point: I still have to unload the power but this time a set which is worthless to collectors. Upgrading power is always a bad trade for the One with the Betas

Yeah man I know it's hard. I have no need to get Beta P9 or I would have just purchased that instead. It would simply be for aesthetic purposes, but instead I purchased my Unlimited for an extremely low price and used some of the money I saved to pick up Workshops, English Mana Drains, and other playable cards for the the format. While I would not mind trading up my Unlimited P9 into Beta, its not my top priority. Maybe once I'm done putting myself through college..
But anyways the red bordered rituals are there as a joke simply because I'm waiting on for a good deal to show up for some Betas. This doesn't mean that I can't afford or don't have the funds for them, I just simply don't want to run out and overpay for some when I trade for them or get a better price.

Which is why I dumped my unl. power for a gigantic stack of revised duals. If it's not beta/alpha, I'm not playing with it.

I definitely agree. One reason why I sold my gurus and am just going alpha/beta basics... for now.

With all the talk about beta power, my standing is as follows: If you have the cash to buy a set straight up, awesome. If you do not, then it's a project that'll bother you until finished.


The first power I picked up was a beta sapphire and a beta lotus. Being the person I am, I'd have to start that project along with the others going on. I couldn't handle it as my other projects are big enough. So I sold the power.

Thanks. I was kind of happy it had the sig too, even thought Dan F isn't that rare. But I got rid of my last signed mox awhile back which was a beat up Unl Pearl that I traded up for a nicer Alpha one. The jet looks better in real life than in the pic which makes the whitening stand out a lot. Only two pieces of power I need to BB now are Time Vault and Timetwister....

Pretty high up. Not only that but he was using checklist cards in his actual deck, so he also had a pile of toploaders filled with foil werewolves off to the side for when he played one. It's hilarious how he got that far with them...

Pretty high up. Not only that but he was using checklist cards in his actual deck, so he also had a pile of toploaders filled with foil werewolves off to the side for when he played one. It's hilarious how he got that far with them...

Not sure if you can view the page or not, but 4th place is the deck list.

No checklist cards in his deck. He has the unflipped foils in his deck and the flipped foils on the side (also in toploaders).

I remember you guys talking about top loader decks... A guy at my LGS top 4'd a TCG 1K I think it was with Foiled out top loader werewolves. He uses the top loaders because the werewolf themed sleeves he has he said he cant find anymore and he wants them to stay clean.

I see them all the time with the mtgmanila videos. Their vintage videos there are always some dudes with these absurd 6 inch high decks. But the most insane thing was a guy in their French Rules Head Up EDH with a fucking top loadered EDH in a long box ... WTF? Who would allow such stupidity at their event? :laugh:

They are guru lands. Compared to some cards in this thread like foil russian miscut ONS fetch lands and such, they seem fairly simple. Also, I think there is one guy in this thread who has 27 of each or something like that.

You guys had a lot of time to purchase Liliana for a lot less. I bought my foil Liliana's the moment they came out. While you guys were busy buying Snapcaster Mages, you could've picked up foil Liliana's for the same price or less.

Stop being bitter because you just follow whatever card ends up in tier 1 decks, even though the card has been out for a long time. If you had the foresight to purchase 10+ foil Liliana's, you could have done the same and sold them for a profit so that you can finance your other decks. The only reason why certain cards are really expensive is because a lot of players just net-deck tier 1 deck lists. Not because a couple of guys purchase more than a playset of a certain card.

Just because you think it's overrated and overpriced doesn't actually make it so. There are a lot of people that simply hate foils and they use the same argument against any foil or beta card (I'm a foil collector myself).

The price of the card is not being raised by the guy who buys out 10 of them in order to make a dollar out of 50 cents, but by the demand from netdeckers who are too stuck in their conventions concerning the tournament playability of cards. They wait for others to break the card, then cry that the card is expensive. The good news is that he had the foresight and economic sense to buy out 10 of them, the bad news is that he didn't buy out 20 of them.

I don't send cards out to be signed often (I prefer not to have them tied up too long) but it depends on the artist. Terese Nielsen is fantastic with signing by mail. I also had a good experience sending cards to Dan Frazier after meeting him at an event. With some artists it may be weeks though. It's worth it to me to include $10 or so for a package of 10-15 cards in addition to a note thanking them in advance.

price is an important (the most important imho) part of pimpness
thus, discussion of the value of pimp cards is an important part of this thread
people shouldn't take the value of their cards so personally
